I have used pertronix conversions on several projects without any problems,,
I have installed pertronix systems no problems easy installation and they work
I replaced the choke on my afb with an electric heated one. I got it from NAPA a simple painless installation that works. much better than trying to adapt a new carb to the st-300 linkage.

Try to get a trans from a Buick or Olds the fill tube and dipstick from a Chevrolet will not bolt in. It was an easy swap for me.
I installed radiant heat in my floor and maintain 55deg f as a minimum temperature. As there is 22 yards of concrete in my floor it takes days to raise or lower the temp, I use a mr heater kero...
